The Harris Family fonds is accessible to faculty and student patrons of Western Archives as well as the general public. Through a Land of Extremes: the Littledales of Central Asia, published in 2007, which documented the travels of Teresa Harris and her husband, St. George Littledale made extensive use of The Harris Family Fonds. Western Archives patrons remain grateful to the Harris Family for their generous donation of Harris Family fonds. |
